Bethel Receives
1500 Slides
The audio-visual department of
Bethel has been supplemented by
the purchase of 1,500 slides put
out as a tour of America. Accord-ing
to Dean of Students, Webster
Muck, the slides include events,
landscapes, architecture and works
of art.
Bethel applied to the Carnegie
Foundation for a grant that would
cover half of the $1,800 cost. Be-cause
the demand for the slides
was greater than expected, Bethel
had to wait six months for the
grant.
Bethel spent another $600 over
the summer to buy other slides.
Many of the slides in the Bethel
library have been taken by faculty
members as they traveled. Eugene
Johnson has contributed a signifi-cant
amount of these slides.
The slides are cataloged in the
library but are housed in the art
department. They are available for
use in any department.

Exploration of participation as
Christian students in society was
discussed at the Mid-West Regional
Convention of the American As-sociation
of Evangelical Students
held on Bethel's campus, Jan. 7-9.
Forty-eight delegates represent-ing
twelve Christian liberal arts
colleges gathered to discuss the
theme, "Christian Committment
and Creative Involvement" keying
their attention to social, intellec-tual
and moral aspects. Keynoter
was Carl F. H. Henry, editor of
Christianity Today.
Participating colleges were
Malone of Canton, Ohio; Hunt-ington
of Huntington, Indiana;
Lincoln of Lincoln, Illinois;
Bethel of Mishawaha, Indiana;

Study, study, study ... A glance
at the school calendar will inform
students of the fact that no acti-vities
have been scheduled for the
week of Jan. 18, prior to FINALS.
This arrangement has been made
by the academic committee for the
obvious purpose of facilitating
those students who wish to spend
their time next week reviewing
(cramming?) for exams. There'll be
no games, no cultural events, no
socials, no clubs, "no nothing" ...
just one week of "booking it."
(No dates?!—while not a new sit-uation
for some, others may find
the "study date" the solution to
their problems.)
Since quiet studying space will
be a rare commodity next week
and during finals, arrangements
are being made by the Academic
Committee to make extra rooms
in the college building available
for study. A list of these rooms
will be posted in the coffee shop,
and notice will also be given
through the P.O.'s.
Bethel, all of Minneapolis-St.
Paul.
Delegates considered the issue
of involving themselves as students
in society through discussion
groups, a panel discussion and ad-dresses
dealing with the various
aspects of involvement. Dr. Henry
set the tone of the convention in
a convocation address emphasizing
the importance of being concerned
about people's needs: social justice
and spiritual redemption.
When questioned in a morning
press conference Henry remarked
during a discussion of the prob-lems
of Christian higher educa-tion
that its great hope for con-tinued
existence lies in the fact
that it can provide a world-view
which, though surpassed qualita-tively
at points by secular educa-tion,
is ultimately more "complete
in approach."
Dr. Timothy Smith, Professor
of History and Education at the
University of Minnesota, in deal-ing
with social involvement chal-lenged
the delegates to accept
the responsibility connected with
leadership and cautioned them to
beware of acting for ego satis-faction.
In a Friday afternoon
address he stated that, as cam-pus
leaders, they are "responsi-ble
to lead students out of isola-tion
and withdrawal from the
world into an encounter with it."
Addressing himself to the moral
aspect of involvement, Dr. C.
Philip Hinerman, Pastor of Park
Avenue Methodist Church of Min-neapolis,
in outlining the steps for
achieving a transparent personal-ity,
stated his belief that "no true
or authentic life is ours until we
assume responsibility for it."
Following Hinerman's message,
a coffee hour brought together
Henry, Smith and Hinerman in a
panel discussion moderated by
Paul R. Johnson, seminary mid-dler.
Discussion groups throughout
Friday provided opportunity for
exchange of ideas. Friday evening,
prior to Henry's evening address,
delegates interacted on "Sex Edu-cation
of the Campus," "Intellec-tual
Rebellion on the Christian
Campus" and "Controversy as a
Means of Creative Thought."
In the Saturday morning busi-ness
meeting, delegates gave prac-tical
application to the idea of
creative involvement by adopting
a service project. The Mid-western
region was divided into three areas
to alleviate scheduling conflicts
and traveling expenses. Three area
committees will suggest feasible
projects to their respective area
before the national convention at
Asbury College in Asbury, Ken-tucky,
April 28-May 1.
Faculty Invites
Book Reviewers
Saturday evening several faculty
members have invited students in-to
their homes. Conversation will
center around one of two books,
either The Plague by Albert Camus
or Animal Farm by George Or-well.
The Academic Committee of
the Student Senate is coordinating
arrangements for the evening.
Preceding Christmas vacation
the two books were offered at re-duced
rates through subsidy by the
Bookstore, the faculty Convocation
Committee and the Academic Com-mittee.
When asked why the committee
had selected this particular week-end,
coordinator Dave Johnson as-tutely
observed, "We knew it
would be a busy time. But this last
week-end before study week seem-ed
to be a good opportunity for
an informal and relaxed evening
of exchange between students and
faculty."
Dorm Council
Makes Report
At last week's Senate meeting
the Bodien Dorm Council reported
on action taken to adjust problems
cited at the Senate forum held be-fore
Christmas. Judy Wiedemer
spoke for the Bodien Council.
She explained that notices have
been posted on the councilor's
doors inviting girls to come in and
talk over the situation and give
suggestions. The council also put
up a suggestion box. So far noth-ing
has been received or suggest-ed.
"If nothing is received through
this media, the efforts will be
dropped," concluded Miss Wiede-mer.

Service Project Raises
AAES Above Convention
No one who attended all or part of the convention of the
American Association of Evangelical Students on campus last
week will deny that the convention program was good. Speakers
and their topics were relevant and timely. Discussion groups
on pointed topics sparked interaction between delegates and
Bethel students.
Certainly all the delegates found the convention signifi-cant
and worthwhile for the contact it gave them with stu-dents
from other schools and for the exchange of ideas. But
now that the convention is over, of what significance is AAES?
Does the organization do anything besides hold conventions?
This problem was given consideration in the business
meeting where delegates decided that the different areas of
the region, like the Twin Cities and Chicago, should investi-gate
the possibilities of an Easter vacation service project.
Whether anything will result from this decision is another
question.
But if this one step toward making AAES of practical
value to members and the world they live in comes to fruition,
it will be because someone from some school sees potential in
AAES. He sees it as a group of Christians who desire to iden-tify
with modern man and his discontents through concern for
social justice and spiritual redemption. And that someone
from school takes the initiative to organize one practical
Easter vacation service project.
Are there any volunteers?

Henry Discusses Positions
On Federal Aid, Civil Rights
by Ralph Oyer
The Plague, by Albert Camus. Knopf, 1948.
Albert Camus, an influential
philosopher who took up his posi-tion
roughly within the school
of the French atheistic existential-ists,
has written a novel entitled
The Plague, in which he master-fully
expresses many of the ideas
contained in his entire philosophy.
Working within a nihilistic
framework, Camus has contributed
to philosophy the concept of the
"absurd" and the "absurd man.
The "absurd" arises whenever the
infinite desires of a man's heart
or spirit exceed the satisfaction
which can (or cannot) come from
a rational interpretation of life,
and the "absurd man" is the en- ,
lightened, articulate nihilist who'
struggles for meaning in the midst
of a life which he knows to be
meaningless. These concepts and
their social implications can be.
seen in The Plague.
Plot structure is simple. The
average, mundane city of ORAN
is besieged for several months
by the bubonic plague, and
Camus uses the horrors of an
extreme situation to reveal the
general plight of humanity.
With his "terrible freedom from
dogma," Camus rejects the formal,
traditional answers which human-ity
has offered. And since the
church has always been one of
mankind's greatest sources of
hope, it too comes under critique.
For reason, the clerical figure,
Father Paneloux, although not
treated as critically as some of the
religious leaders portrayed else-where
in existential literature, is
nevertheless dealt a severe blow.
His faith is noble, sincere, and yet
unconvincing as he ends in tra-gedy.
Thus, rejecting all answers as
fertile, Camus attempts to an-swer
just one remaining ques-tion:
"Why is it more worthwhile
to continue living than to die?"
Why not suicide? And Camus
answers this question most clear-ly
in his characterization of Dr.
Rieax, a medical doctor who,
without belief in God, devotes
by Cathy Peterson
Dr. Carl F. H. Henry, keynote
speaker at the regional convention
of the American Association of
Evangelical Students, discussed in
a Friday morning press confer-ence
several topics concerning
evangelical churches and church-supported
schools.
Concerning the causes for the
lack of action by evangelicals in
the area of civil rights, Dr. Henry
began by noting that "historically,
the evangelical movement has been
the vanguard of social reform."
He agreed that evangelicals are
not noted for their action in the
defense of civil rights, but stated
that this is due to the emphasis
they place on a changed outlook
in individuals rather than on legal
enactment at the more impersonal
level of state or federal regulation.
Henry stated his position regard-ing
Federal aid to education, ob-serving
that "evangelical college
presidents ought to get together
and act out of a single mind" in
regard to the problem of accept-ing
government funds for building
and expansion. While stressing his
personal view that "Federal aid
inevitably leads to Federal con-trol,"
he went on to say that the
question facing administrators is
whether they "will work a need-less
injury to their evangelical
schools if they do not take for
Viet Nam ...
Viet Cong guerillas ambushed a,
company of Vietnamese troops
early Saturday leaving one Ameri-can
officer killed and another
wounded. The guerillas, however,
were routed, leaving at least fifty
Communists killed.
The Vietnamese armed forces
agreed to end their military rule
and restore governmental author-ity
to the civilians.
State of the Union ...
President Johnson's state of
the Union message went much
further than had generally been
expected. Several proposals had
no advanced intimation: A pro-posed
panel of experts to study
crime; reforms in the electoral
college system to require an
elector to vote for the candidate
to whom he was designated.
themselves what is legally avail-able
to everyone else."
Henry further indicated that the
more government controls educa-tion
the less education is in a
position to criticize the govern-ment.
He cited the situation in
Communist countries, but gave no
precedent in the area of Federal
aid to public schools producing
Letters to the Editor:
Dear Editor:
As a regular reader of your
paper may I thank you for the
stimulating editorial (in the De-cember
16th issue) where you dis-cuss
whether our denomination
will vote at its annual meeting at
Akron, Ohio next summer to ac-cept
federal financial grants.
This is a thorny question, and
your editorial contributed substan-tially
to the discussion now going
on in our churches.
However, your prophecy that
"the Conference will consequently
accept federal aid" was hardly one
some of us will agree with. Our
strong hope is that at its annual
meeting in June delegates from
our churches will resoundingly
turn down the school board's re-quest
to accept such grants.
Our viewpoint is based, we feel,
on strong historical and present-
Other recommendations includ-ed:
More aid-to-education; doub-ling
funds for the "war on pov-erty";
hospital care for the eld-erly
under social security; a new
immigration law; expanded
health programs.
Democrats Increase Power...
Democrats fashioned new lever-age
for passage of Administration
bills by increasing their represen-tation
on all legislative committees
in the House of Representatives.
Longshoremen Strike...
Assistant Labor Secretary James
R. Renolds tried to bridge a gap
between longshoremen and their
union leaders, but said he saw
little possibility of staving off a
costly dock strike.
GOP ...
Midwest Republican leaders
claim sufficient strength to ous-ter
Dean Burch as Republican
national chairman and elect Ray
Bliss, Ohio state chairman to
head the GOP national organiza-tion.
Former Americans ...
American-born poet and play-wright,
T. S. Eliot, who won a
Nobel Prize for poetry, died Jan,
4 in London, a British citizen, at
the age of 76.
Elizabeth Taylor intends to re-nounce
her American citizenship—
"not that I love America less, but
I love my husband more."
Test-tube Embryos...
Dr. H. Bently Glass, John Hop-kins
geneticest and leader in A-merican
Biology in an interview
Saturday stated that the day of
test-tube embryos, grown by sci-entists,
is so close that "we had
better start to give it really grave

truth."

In addition, some of us who tra-vel

Opinions expressed in the CLARION do not
on recesessma irndayryr.eflect the position of the college
himself entirely to the struggle
against the plague.
And this brings us to the heart
of Camus. If Meursault (the hero
in Camus' earlier novel, The
Stranger) had passively accepted
"the benign indifference of the uni-verse,"
then Rieux would go or.
to struggle as a human being a-gainst
the fact of absolute mean-inglessness.
Rieux can now be seen to be
the noble rebel. Acts of kindness,
mercy and love do not indicate sub-mission
to a higher purpose. Ra-ther,
they are acts of pure rebel-lion.
The authentic man thus be-comes
noble in order that he may
carry on his "metaphysical revolt."
Camus ends at the point where
Christian revelation must begin. A
world without God is doomed to
meaninglessness, but a world in
which God intervenes via the
Cross and the empty tomb is a
world in which we may still hope
until the end.

As Delegates Consider Its Benefits
schools could not individually
set up such a good series of mes-sages
and discussions as this
convention did with Drs. Henry,
Hinerman and Smith. When we
go back to school, we will report
to the student council and the
student body. I only wish more
of our students could actually
be at the convention."
"I suppose our school is more
keenly aware of AAES than usual
this year because we have the
national headquarters there," said
Wheatonite Sharon Pavelda. "The
most exciting thing about AAES
is its potential for interchange.
"For example, our AAES has
sponsored exchange groups with
other schools, both Christian and
secular, to discuss important is-sues
facing our generation, espec-ially
spiritual issues. It has also
sponsored chapel worship services,
but we do need to involve more
students in these activities."
"I don't think AAES is under-stood
by the general populace of
our school," noted Willard Sou-flay,
convention delegate from
Huntington College. "Some of
the students don't even know it
exists."
"This is probably true because
most of the action of AAES cen-ters
in conventions," added La-
Doyt Rodeheaver, also of Hunting-ton.
"I find the conventions are
personally rewarding, but the prob-lem
lies in channeling them ef-fectively
back into the school situa-tion."
Sign up delegates! Students from 12 schools registered for the AAES
convention at Bethel last week. Besides hearing stimulating speakers
and participating in interesting discussions, convention visitors escaped
the usual routine of classes and responsibilities of student leadership.
by Carole Lundquist
Several questions have perenn-ially
plagued participants in the
American Association of Evangeli-cal
Students. This year • again,
these problems crept into discus-sions
at last week's regional con-vention.
Questions were asked:
What are specific ways that AAES
can benefit a Christian, liberal
arts college? and How do we in-volve
our student body in its pro-gram?
"Well, we're brand new in
AAES," commented Steve DeFor
of Minnesota Bible College, "and
so far very few students know
anything about the organization.
We debated whether to join for
quite some time but we decided
that we could profit from the in-terchange
of ideas. It's very help-ful
to hear of the problems facing
other Christian colleges and the
solutions which some of them have
worked out.

is that most of the member

Frank Lawatsch is an Augsburg

Bill Hossler of Bethel College in
South Bend, Indiana, suggested
that they "publish articles in the
school paper and use the chapel
period to convey the impact of
AAES conventions."
"We'll be reporting back to
the students in a chapel service,
too," said Olivet College dele-gate,
Bruce Peterson. "I think
AAES fulfills two functions.
One, of course, is the helpful
interchange of ideas with other
campuses, but perhaps the great-est
role of AAES is to provide
a feeling of unity among Chris-tian
campuses. In this way, we
can better realize our distinctive-ness
and our purpose."
It's probably safe to predict that
these same questions will arise
at the next convention and the
next and the next . . . Perhaps in
time, more complete answers will
also arise as concerned students

Selections from the works of
Pergolisi, Ninkochanski, Mozart,
Bach and Saint-Saens highlighted
a concert given by Minneapolis
Symphony violinist Joseph Roche
last Thursday evening in the col-lege
auditorium.
The "Sonata No. 12 in E major,"
by Pergolesi consists of an allegro,
adagio and presto that require an
artistic observance of dynamics
which Roche displayed. His seem-ingly
effortless bowing and arti-culation
added to the brilliance
of this work.
His next selection, Adagio and
Fugue for violin alone, from "Son-ata
in G Minor," by Bach, brought
forth a rich quality in tone, espec-ially
in the adagio portion. The in-strument
literally sang a song of
lament and deep sorrow which
hushed the audience: however, this
was rudely interrupted by a few
people making a noisy entrance.
The "Chants D' Espange" by
Ninkochanski opened with a lento
Bethany Baptist Church
which reminded one of a small
Spanish town in early morning as
the sun rises and the mist is clear-ing.
A piano interlude about 32
measures into the piece gave the
idea that the town was awaken-ing.
The final movement gave the
impression of a Spanish dance with
a senorita finishing with a cli-mactic
spin.
"Mozart's Adagio" in E major
opened the second part of the
program. The difficulty of Mozart
lies in two areas: the simplicity of
his melodies which require a deli-cate
touch and the intensification
of crescendo on single notes gra-dually
and evenly. Roche demon-strated
his understanding of both
areas reasonably well.
His finale was Saint-Saen "Con-certo
No. 3 in B minor," op. 61. The
andante quasi allegro was a melan-choly
and heart warming tune
which is characteristic of Saint-
Saens andantes. This piece enabled
the soloist to make use of his own
imagination and interpretation.

Crime doesn't pay—unless you happen to play intramural basket-ball.
Suddenly a whole new world of opportunity is revealed to the
"competitive" one. It is such a unique blend of "crime' that often whole
teams can be found participating in it.
Pushing, shoving, wrist-slapping, hooking, mauling, clobbering—
all are legal in this game. Try to drive through the middle- for a lay-up
and five pairs of arms, legs, hips and hands converge on you. Drive
the baseline for a close shot and it's as though Atlas suddenly let go of
the sky. There are nurmerous other examples.
This isn't competition, it's National Hacking Night for ten fel-lows,
who feel once they get fouled without the referee seeing it, it's
open season on anyone. The unfortunate ref is faced with an impos-sible
task. Consequently, most referees feel they can't possibly call
all the fouls, and if they did both teams would foul out their starting
five in the first three minutes of action. It seems as though an im-passe
has been reached. The iron-fisted men with the most rugged
members will win.
Concession often comes easy at this point, but far be it from any of
the intramural teams to concede anything. And I don't blame them!
Each of the teams has fine ball players and the potential of being the
season's top dog. But something has to be done.
Perhaps a rule making two referees mandatory for each game
could be enforced. Difficulty is encountered here, because there just
aren't enough guys who know how to call a game. The Royals' basket-ball
players are immediately brought to mind, but even they can't be
blamed for not wanting to run up and down a basketball court after
21/2 hours of gruelling practice—for a gigantic $1.25 a game.
To encourage caution and respect for the other fellows on the
court, perhaps a four-foul a game limit could be set. This would en-courage
clean defense and make the offensive attack of a team more
aggressive.
If the foul limit is decreased, then the one and one situation could
be changed to three or four fouls in a half.
But most importantly, each member of the intramural team must
come to an understanding of both himself and the game of basketball.
One must learn to cope with the rules to win. Caution and respect
for the opponent is not a nicety, it's a mandatory rule. The captains
and the managers of the teams must take the first all-important step
of cementing relations between teams, by encouraging their players
to play cleanly and according to the rules of the game.
The Bethel Lion is seen making an appearance at a home game.
He will be in action again Friday night as the Royals entertain Univer-sity
of Minnesota Morris in a home tilt.
